I might guess with such a party you really reinforce everyone’s image of the baby’s sex and they might be less accepting if the person comes out as a different gender further down the line? Idk
Doesn’t really matter. The moment the people hear it’s male or female, determines how people will treat the baby. Put a baby boy in pink and don’t tell people, and people will talk to him like they would to a girl.
Whether or not people accept the small chance that the kid turns out transgender, depends on their personal views. I doubt a gebder reveal party is significant. Besides, it’s a party for the parents to be. Not the baby.
I absolutely get that, but I thought, perhaps making such a big deal out of the baby’s sex might set some large expectations pretty early on. Not only in the parents’ minds, but all the family that attends.
i mean it’s certainly going to be a bit of a bummer if they end up wanting to transition, kinda like how it sucks to be branded as “gifted” in school and then falling behind and unable to get a job.

Those expectatioms will be there regardless and depend largly on the culture and people. A gender reveal won’t add much I think.
